B. Monchengladbach vs Augsburg prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2026-01-10 14:30.
[p]Borussia Mönchengladbach and Augsburg are both precariously placed in the bottom half of the Bundesliga table heading into this intriguing showdown on Sunday. [/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Gladbach return from the winter break following a December which yielded little in the way of festive cheer, as they look to avoid a third successive league defeat for the first time since April. Especially concerning for the Foals is the fact they conceded more goals (five) in their last two Bundesliga games than the previous six – a run that saw them take 13 points and only lose to reigning champions Bayern Munich. Their key priority now is to improve a measly total of one home league win this season (D3, L4). [/p]
[p]Augsburg can leapfrog Gladbach with a win here, but a victory will be anything but straightforward when judging their recent form. Since memorably masterminding a 2-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen in his first match as interim manager, Manuel Baum has subsequently seen his side fail to score against Eintracht Frankfurt and Werder Bremen, taking just a point from those games. The prospect of Die Fuggerstädter’s 15-season Bundesliga spell coming to an end in May remains a real possibility, and those fears will be hastened by a worrying run of away form which has seen them fail to win a Bundesliga game on the road since matchday one.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Augsburg are unbeaten in the last four H2Hs (W3, D1) and will be gunning for three straight away wins against Gladbach for the first time in their history![/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Only Mainz have failed to score in more Bundesliga games this season (eight) than Gladbach’s pre-round total of seven. [/p]
[p]The half-time result has been replicated at full-time in eight of Gladbach’s last nine matches.[/p]
[p]Augsburg are at risk of failing to score in three successive Bundesliga games for the first time since April 2021. [/p]
[p]Only one of Augsburg’s last nine games has seen both teams score.[/p]
[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]
[p]Kevin Stöger got the assist for Gladbach’s only goal against Augsburg last season, while seven of his last eight goals have been scored after half-time. Alexis Claude-Maurice netted four times against Gladbach last term – including a hat-trick in last season’s corresponding fixture (3-0) – as many goals as he has got against the rest of the Bundesliga’s current members combined since joining Augsburg![/p]
[p]Gladbach do not appear to have any fresh absentees, while Augsburg’s Dimitris Giannoulis is suspended and Kristijan Jakić is a doubt here after going off injured.[/p]
